Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/12/2016 -- Spirotetramat is a tetramic acid derivative with IUPAC name cis-4-(ethoxycarbonyloxy)-8-methoxy-3-(2,5-xylyl)-1-azaspiro[4.5]dec-3-en-2-one. It belongs to ketoenol group. Spirotetramat is sprayed on the leaves of the plant. It reaches all the parts of the plant including the roots and buds, through xylem and phloem present in the plant. Traditional insecticides have one-way transport system, through xylem, and hence are applied on growing plant parts. However, phloem transports from leaves to roots hence can be applied at any stage of the plant growth. Spirotetramat is widely used for citrus, pome fruit, grape, strawberries, lettuce, mangoes and cotton, etc. This insecticide is effective against aphids, psyllids, scales, whiteflies, mealybugs and selected thrips.

Increasing pest resistance to existing pesticides, other than spirotetramat, and the overall cost reduction in pest management are expected to drive the global spirotetramat market. Farmers can use spirotetramat at any stage of plant growth due to the two-way systemicity of spirotetramat. Moreover, high demand for good quality fruits & vegetable from food processing industry is further anticipated to boost spirotetramat demand in the next few years. However, ban on spirotetramat by federal law in some states in the U.S. and high cost of this product due to patents is anticipated to hamper the market growth. Companies operating in the market are likely to gain opportunities after the patent expiration of spirotetramat.
